Chapter 648 Ask For Medicine
Divine Nation proverb: Blessed are the children of the capital city, bitter and difficult to the border town garrison old soldier. These words were said by a certain disciple of the Li Clan of Tiance, who used to be famous all over the capital, to feed the eagle dog with the meat of the brothel's socialite. On the other hand, the 800,000-mile-long patrol of the old soldiers of the border town was often a thousand-mile-long sight, and it was rare to see a living creature for several months. Occasionally, a sow would be able to discover the charm of the peerless independence of the city.
Among the four frontier armies of the Divine Kingdom, the Confederate army on the 90,000 li border with the Thunder Continent in the southwest was the most difficult. The chances of life and death changing were the highest when they fought against the ferocious voodoo army all year round. The famous Heavenly Policy Army belonged to the Confederate Army. The second was the western army that guarded the western sea route. Although they didn't have many combat missions, they were still struggling to roam the sea all year round. Among them, the Zhao clan's Dragon Submersible Ship Unit was the most powerful.
Next was the Northern Army. Apart from being responsible for defending against the invasion of the barbarians from the northern ice plains, they also had to defend against the 10,000-mile line of defense that bordered the Northwest Continent and the Terminator Forest. Among them, the Chen Clan's Divine Blessing Army was the most elite force in the Northern Army.
Although Sacred Leaf Town belonged to the witch kingdom, it was located in the military defensive area of the Northern Army. In order to prevent the savage and inhumane barbarians of the Ice Plains from bypassing the Divine Blessed Ice Ocean and invading the Divine Kingdom from the direction of the Terminator Forest, the Three-eyed Great Sage had reached a military cooperation agreement with the Witch Kingdom a hundred years ago, placing Sacred Leaf Town within the northern army's patrol line. From then on, every three months, there would be a Myriad Forces of the Northern Divine Kingdom passing by.
Although this world was still as confused and elusive as the night for Gu Tianyou, one thing was always as clear as a lamp. Never try to fight the real regular army head-on. At least for now. They could compete for power and gain in a small area, or even eliminate small groups of local armies, but they could never challenge the Divine Kingdom's military. Once they clashed with the military, it would be tantamount to challenging the foundation and order of the entire Divine Kingdom. Even if they temporarily took advantage of it, they would not be able to withstand any future troubles.
Therefore, Gu Tianyou did not move the Shennong Gang. Although Ye He had always thought that Shennong Gang was a Tian Daoist force, he had never thought that a Jianghu organization like Shennong Gang would be able to establish itself in a place like Sacred Leaf Town. How could they guarantee that they would not be swallowed by those people with just an unclean background?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShennong Gang's main business was to do business in herbs and demonic pills, or to obtain what they wanted from adventurers by buying and selling them or by taking them by force. Ignoring the nobility of their methods, it was clear that their business scope was related to the Chen Clan of the Blessed Army. Perhaps the Shennong Gang was not run by the Chen Clan, but judging from their business scope, they definitely had some kind of deal with the top medical clan in the Divine Kingdom.
Previously, Gu Tianyou didn't care about what was going on behind their backs. All he cared about was that this Shennong Gang was related to the Chen Clan and the Divine Blessing Army, which meant that they were also related to the Northern Army. That was why, knowing that the other party had bribed Ling Xuzi to assassinate him, he let them off on that night of slaughter.
But now, it was time. He had already exterminated the Wind Forest Fire Pirates, so it was time to deal with the Shennong Gang. Before he made his move, he had to confirm what kind of deal Yang Kun, who Ye He considered to be an elite of the Heavenly Daoist Sect, had reached with the Chen Clan of the Divine Blessing Army. At the same time, he helped Brother Wild Crane to see what kind of bird this thing was.
There was a Shennong Hall Potion Shop in Sacred Leaf Town. That night, Skyfire City was slaughtered. Many buildings in the surroundings were not spared. This old wooden potion shop, which could burn with a little spark, was lucky enough to avoid the impact.
Early in the morning, before the door of the pharmacy opened, many people had already gathered in front of the door. There were patients of all races, as well as adventurers who had picked herbs from the depths of the Scarlet Dragon Mountain and returned with beautiful goods. The two servants in green hats removed the door panels and pushed open the door to start business.
The crowd immediately rushed forward and squeezed in. A loud and clear-voiced gate cabinet sang a herb-picking song, "Scarlet Dragon Mountain is green, 36 peaks are dense, grass is golden, stone is jade is marrow, if there is, herb-picking person is fragrant, moist, and dangerous. He calls Floating Qiu Xi down to earth as a couple … … … to accompany Xuanyuan."
Another attendant shouted loudly, "Shennong decides the way of medicine. Doctors have parents' hearts. There is no value in opening the door. If you ask for help, you don't ask for help."
Gu Tianyou led Little Fox Maiden to stand across the street from Shennong Hall and watched. A few attendants walked out of Shennong Hall. Each of them had a refreshing look on their faces. They placed four tables in front of the door in an orderly manner, leaving only one aisle for them to leave. There was a sign on the left side of the table with the word 'Dou Da' written on it, but the sign on the right side of the table had the word 'Receive' written on it. The doctors lined up to the left and the drug sellers waited to the right.
A large barbarian man covered in dirt and unpleasant smell was ranked first in the inquiry. The one who treated him was a middle-aged man who looked clean and tidy. The big man's hands were extremely filthy, and he opened his mouth to speak, revealing a mouthful of uneven black teeth, emitting a strong smell.
"Sir, I don't have a bronze horn on me, nor do I have any gold coins."
The middle-aged man's expression did not change. He said indifferently, "Let's see a doctor first. We'll talk about other things after we see a doctor." As he spoke, he calmly placed his hand on the man's dirty and greasy wrist. After thinking for a while, he picked up a pen and wrote a prescription for the waiter behind him. Finally, he said, "This medicine is to cure the root cause of the poison. The abscess on your body has already reached its climax, and you still need to use federal surgery to characterize it."
"I don't have any money," said the man. "The vampires from the Andalusian Society can't operate on me."
The middle-aged man said, "Shennong Hall is not a charitable hall. We have people who will do the surgery. After that, you have to go to the Crimson Dragon Mountain Medicine Garden to work and pay off the debts."
"My brother told me that your herb garden is too tightly managed. You don't pay for your work, and you get beaten up for being lazy. I can do as much work as ten Shennong tribesmen by myself. They are paid, but we only have one mouthful of food. It's unfair," said the burly man.
The middle-aged man glanced at him coldly. He expressionlessly twisted a silver needle and stabbed it into the meridians of the burly man's arm. He said, "If you don't go, then you can use your life essence blood to compensate for it. A barbarian's life essence energy is enough to save a dozen people. I'll have to give you a few gold coins later." As he said that, he pushed the big man and pointed at another table. He instructed, "Go over there and get some blood."
This was probably not the first time that the burly man had done so. He immediately stood up and walked to another table. He held his arm like an experienced horse and handed the needle pierced by the middle-aged man to a young clerk. The clerk took out a vacuum bottle made by the Federation and skillfully extracted a bottle of bright yellow blood from the burly man.
Gu Tianyou said, "What they extracted is this person's life essence soul. This big man can withstand at most three more bottles, and then his death will come."
When Little Fox Maiden saw this, she couldn't help but frown and say, "This Chen Clan's gentleman is really cold."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGu Tianyou smiled and said, "This is the nature of the barbarians, Always looking at the bread in front of him, "And he is rarely willing to work hard for tomorrow's gold coins. He would rather do this than work to continue his life. Shennong Hall can save more people by taking his life essence soul essence. It can't be said to be cold or not. If he doesn't pay any price, according to Shennong Hall's management method of treating illnesses first and collecting fees afterwards, it would probably be hard for him to continue."
Qiu Ling'er said, "What Master said makes sense. In the past, I used to pretend to be the Lotus Empress in the surface world. When I gave medicine to people, I was always foolish and didn't care about the price. In the end, I couldn't help a few people. I asked them for money if I had no other choice. After that, they said that we were evil people and did good deeds just to cheat money."
Gu Tianyou laughed out loud and said, "Then you bit off your head in anger?"
The little fox girl pouted, revealing her sharp little tiger fangs, licking her tongue and saying, "The blood of those villains tastes really good." This little demon was already a Xiantian Fiendgod and possessed the innate talent of the Grand Dao of Water Virtue, so it didn't need to absorb a person's soul and blood to cultivate. However, there was a saying that it was impossible to change her nature. The demon instincts on her body might never completely disappear. He could not help but reveal his yearning when he smelled the tempting aura of the Life Essence Soul Essence. action
Gu Tianyou stretched out his hand and gently pinched her beautiful chin. "I can allow you to open the meat whenever you have the right opportunity. Just remember to choose the right person."
Qiu Ling'er said happily, "I just eat bad people, the kind of people that master hates, never eat good people and beautiful women."
Gu Tianyou couldn't help but laugh again. "Remember to clean your mouth when you're done, The monster race is taboo to eat humans in the Origin World of Zhendan. That bunch of people who don't spit out their bones are lofty. They are only allowed to eat people without their mouths in the name of helping the heavens, but the demons are not allowed to open their mouths to eat people according to the will of the heavens. I heard that those great demons who dare to eat people are at least at the peak of the Great Sage realm, rank 10 or super-grade magic treasures. I'm afraid that's not enough for you. "
"It doesn't matter. I'll just eat those annoying ghosts." Qiu Ling'er smiled and said, "Their backing is far away."
The front of Shennong Hall was still bustling with excitement. He was busy diagnosing people's illnesses, and those who collected herbal demonic pills were also very busy. Gu Tianyou stepped forward and said, "Let's go in and pay a visit." The master and servant strolled past the front hall and walked straight into the Shennong Hall's backyard. A waiter quickly followed from the front and scolded and questioned, "Hey, what's wrong with you guys? Why are you rushing in without greeting? There are rules for seeing a doctor, and there are rules for selling medicines. Quit quickly!"
Gu Tianyou turned around and smiled, "I'm not here to see a doctor, nor am I here to sell medicine. I'm the new sheriff, surnamed Gu, and I want to see you here to keep my word." As he spoke, he waved his hand and handed over a jade token to the clerk. "Take it to the shopkeeper here to take a look," he said.
When the waiter heard the words "new sheriff", he shrank his neck. Then, he looked at Gu Tianyou with a daze. The more he looked, the more shocked he became. He was intimidated by Gu Tianyou's aura. He stretched out his hands and hesitated to receive the jade token. He said, "Manager Chen is in the back hall. Wait a moment, this lowly person will report to you."
"There's no need to report." An old voice came from the main room of the backyard, "I don't know if the honored guest has come with the old token of the Three Pavilions, but I, Chen Dihuang, am sorry for my neglect." A white-robed, white-haired, and red-faced old man strode out of the room and bowed. "Chen Dihuang is courteous to see the Shennong jade token as if it were an old pavilion master. May I ask if you have any advice?"
Gu Tianyou accepted the jade token and cupped his fists in return, "I came to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. I came here this time for the word Shennong!"
